Environmental Assessment. Victory Homes Demolition and Replacement

Abstract

The Department of the Navy (Navy) has prepared this Environmental Assessment (EA) to evaluate potential environmental effects associated with the proposed removal of 198 units of enlisted family housing at the Seaplane Base, Naval Air Station, Whidbey Island (NASWI). The project is located at the Victory Homes site on the western flank of Eerkes Hill near the northwest corner of the Seaplane Base, NASWI, Oak Harbor, Island County, Washington. One hundred ninety-five of the existing housing units are proposed for demolition, and three housing units (one duplex building and one single-family unit) would be preserved to mitigate adverse effects to historic resources and be re-used for non-residential purposes. This action is subject to the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and has been determined to be an undertaking under the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) as defined in 36 CFR 800.16(y) and meeting the adverse effect criteria of 36 CFR 800.5(a). This EA combines both the NEPA and NHPA processes into a single, integrated analysis and joint action.
